Poor clueless Windows user.... http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050 429153115383 It's built-in, cheaper (than buying XP Pro), and SAFER. There's a Remote Desktop Client for Mac OS X too if you still can't give up your PC.

On: Arcade Kit Seller Applies for MAME Trademark [updated]

I think you should drop it and walk away while you still can. You just pissed off every last customer and potential customer.

At this point you can still let them MAME devs have the trademark. But you little holy war on eBay and against ROM sites while conitnue to cause you problems as long as you pursue it.

Have you learned NOTHING from the RIAA?!?

There's a discussion here.

They should get you started...

Here's a list of software for you.

On: Rolling Your Own Jukebox System?

This a software list I've started on a new website I'm building. http://buildajukebox.com/content/view/8/26/

You might find something to help you there. Hopefully there'll be no /. effect.

I use the Hauppauge PVR-250 to record mine to DVD. You can find out more about it on BYOPVR.com.

Seems like a good time to mention BYOPVR! Which was launched a few weeks ago.

What this really means.

On: Microsoft's Next Virtual PC Will Run Linux

So there's a new Linux Virus?

I'd guess that in the fine Microsoft tradition, they've figured out how to make their software crash Linux while making it (technically) Linux's fault. I mean, they are the masters of exploitaion.

See: Lotus 1-2-3 and DOS, WordPerfect and Windows, and (more recently) Netscape and Windows.

I declare SCO invalid! Hmmm... Same effect.

IBM code-free Kernel

On: IBM Countersues SCO, And More!

I may be missing something here but, why not just weed out all IBM code and re-release the Kernel, until IBM smacks SCO down? That way EVERYONE is covered except IBM Linux users and I believe that IBM will cover them if IBM looses in some kind of display of justice perversion.

It seems like an easy out for 99% of linux users...

Microsoft OWNS Apple

On: Microsoft Names Linux its Number Two Risk

At least 10%. I'm quite sure Microsoft made them sign a non-competition clause before they got the money. This is why OS-X will never be sold for PCs and why Mac monitors are made to not work with PCs.

Someone should buy that bit of Apple back. Apple could make a fortune selling PCs that look like Apples. Remember the Emachine? And if they ported OS-X to Intel they'ed be the instant number 2 DESKTOP OS.
